Los Angeles
Three hours before the close of polls in California, Bernie Sanders - or rather his campaign - even sending emails urging his supporters to vote. A plethora of polls predicted a close race with his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton. An army of volunteers passing shots son all directions in this "Golden State" the senator from Vermont roamed for weeks. With emails at regular intervals, Sanders had almost convinced Californians he would win the primary. A victory in the most populous state in the country would have been a real snub for Hillary Clinton.
And Monday night, the Associated Press reported that former First Lady had exceeded the absolute majority of 2,383 delegates needed for the Democratic nomination. Fell the day before primary six (California, New Jersey, North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana and New Mexico), that she has discouraged some information from Sanders voters go to the polls? Hard to say. But Wednesday morning, the US media reported the victory of the former Secretary of State in California.
On arrival at Santa Monica Airport where a waiting crowd of supporters in the evening, some believed the senator from Vermont came to announce the end of his campaign. His words first appeared more conciliatory, less combative than usual. And then, as and as his speech progressed, his supporters realized that he had no intention of letting go. "We will continue the fight to Philadelphia," he said, more pugnacious than ever, the cheers. He also announced that he would continue his campaign at least until the 57th and final primary next Tuesday in Washington, the federal capital.
Benefit from Clinton's charge?

According to Politico magazine, it would be in anticipation of a Hillary Clinton charged in the case of his private messaging. Another theory advanced by the commentators: the last campaign of his long career, he has the unwavering support of millions of fans and wants to fight the battle until the end, intoxicated with success. At the expense of his party? Many are those feared that her refusal to toe the line by lining up behind Hillary Clinton to six months of elections has the Republican candidate Donald Trump and think it is urgent to unify the party instead of s' stubbornly divide.
Supporters of Bernie Sanders say it is rather motivated by ideals of social justice, racial, economic and Environmental. Pursuing what he calls his "political revolution", he hopes to gain concessions from his party for the benefit of the American people to the detriment of billionaires who "buy the election." "Our mission goes beyond a defeat of Donald Trump. It is to transform our country, "he insisted Tuesday in Santa Monica.
